Talking about the impact on Creta, the car managed to topple and was found in that way itself. Looks like the point of the crash on Creta was towards the headlight so that it toppled. The front portion including driver side headlamps, windscreen, bonnet, alloy wheels and fenders all are so damaged that they are beyond repair. The passenger side and grille are still intact.
The A-Pillar has been damaged on the driver side and so has the roof. Luckily, the doors have taken up the impact and keep the passengers safe. They just received some bruises on the hand and shoulders but otherwise walked completely safe. From the back side, the bonnet has just been shook apart from the impact but otherwise, remains unaffected.
Going on to the Etios, it has also received a similar impact. The driver side has been completely damaged and the tyres have bursted. A very interesting thing is that you cannot see any damages on the doors or towards the boot. Even the bonnet and grille are not that damaged and are still intact. This tells us about the high safety rating that Etios offers.
